Abstract

Catalysts having a blend of platinum on a support with low ammonia storage with a Cu-SCR catalyst or an Fe-SCR catalyst are disclosed. The catalysts can also contain one or two additional SCR catalysts. The catalysts can be present in one of various configurations. Catalytic articles containing these catalysts are disclosed. The catalytic articles are useful for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx in exhaust gases and in reducing the amount of ammonia slip. Methods for producing such articles are described. Methods of using the catalytic articles in an SCR process, where the amount of ammonia slip is reduced, are also described.

First claim

We claim:

1 . A catalytic article comprising a substrate having an inlet and outlet and coated with a first coating comprising a blend of platinum on a support with low ammonia storage with a first SCR catalyst; a second coating comprising a second SCR catalyst; wherein the second coating at least partially overlaps the first coating, and wherein the first SCR catalyst is a Cu-SCR catalyst or a Fe-SCR catalyst.

2 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the second coating completely overlaps the first coating.

3 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the support with low ammonia storage is a siliceous support comprising a silica or a zeolite with silica-to-alumina ratio of at least one of ≧100.

4 . The catalyst of claim 1 , where the blend comprising platinum on a support with low ammonia storage further comprises at least one of palladium (Pd), gold (Au) silver (Ag), ruthenium (Ru) or rhodium (Rh).

5 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the first SCR catalyst comprises Cu or Fe loaded on a molecular sieve selected from the group of Framework Types consisting of ACO, AEI, AEN, AFN, AFT, AFX, ANA, APC, APD, ATT, CDO, CHA, DDR, DFT, EAB, EDI, EPI, EM, GIS, GOO, IHW, ITE, ITW, LEV, KFI, MER, MON, NSI, OWE, PAU, PHI, RHO, RTH, SAT, SAV, SIV, THO, TSC, UEI, UFI, VNI, YUG, ZON, BEA, MFI and FER and mixtures and/or intergrowths thereof.

6 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the second SCR catalyst is base metal supported on a molecular sieve, wherein the base metal is selected from the group consisting of vanadium (V), molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W), chromium (Cr), cerium (Ce), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu), and mixtures thereof.

7 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the catalyst provides an improvement in N 2 yield from ammonia at a temperature from about 200° C. to about 300° C. compared to a catalyst comprising a comparable formulation in which the first SCR catalyst is present as a first layer and platinum is present in a second layer and gas comprising NH 3 and NO passes through the first layer before passing through the second layer, wherein the improvement in N 2 yield is at least 10%.

8 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the catalyst provides reduced N 2 O formation from NH 3 and NOx at a temperature from about 200° C. to about 350° C. compared to a catalyst comprising a comparable formulation in which the first SCR catalyst is present as a first layer and platinum is present in a second layer and gas comprising NH 3 and NO passes through the first layer before passing through the second layer.

9 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the substrate is cordierite, a high porosity cordierite, a metallic substrate, an extruded honeycomb, or a filter.

10 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the second SCR catalyst is located on the inlet side of the catalyst comprising the blend of platinum on a support with low ammonia storage with the first SCR catalyst.

11 . The catalytic article of claim 1 , where the second SCR catalyst is located on the outlet side of the catalyst comprising the blend of platinum on a support with low ammonia storage with the first SCR catalyst.

12 . The catalytic article of claim 11 , where the second SCR catalyst comprises promoted-Ce—Zr or promoted-MnO 2 .

13 . The catalyst article of claim 1 wherein the second coating overlaps at least 20% of the length of the first coating along an axis from the inlet to the outlet.

14 . A method of improving the N 2 yield from ammonia and NOx in an exhaust gas at a temperature from about 200° C. to about 350° C., the method comprising contacting an exhaust gas comprising ammonia with a catalytic article of claim 1 .

15 . A method of treating exhaust gas comprising ammonia and NOx, the method comprising contacting an exhaust gas comprising ammonia with a catalytic article of claim 1 .
